Why We LOVE Boutique Hotels in New York City
Why do New Yorkers love New York City boutique hotels? Because we are known for appreciating all things unique, intimate, luxurious, artistic, and sometimes, even quirky (free goldfish during your stay?)
When a New Yorker goes on a “staycation,” we usually choose a New York City Boutique Hotel, known for their services, rooms, dining, amenities and many times, perks, such as free breakfast.
